The New York Daily News reports (a week after we reported, ahem) that the NY Post has been scattering free copies of the paper around Queens and Brooklyn and intends to include them in circulation numbers:
In a frantic, desperate effort to jimmy up circulation numbers, the Post has been littering New York City with free copies encased in red plastic bags – 50,000 copies each weekday.
[Ed.—Note the gratuitous “frantic, desperate”.]
Also:
If your front steps or lawn is being littered with New York Posts that you didn’t ask for and aren’t going to pay for, please let us know and we’ll try to help.
How charitable.
